Theoretical study of electromagnetic transport in Lepidoptera Danaus plexippus wing scales
This paper examines the electromagnetic energies developed in the scales of the Lepidoptera Danaus plexippus. The Green tensor method was used to calculate and simulate the energies at specific wavelengths.

Both diurnal and nocturnal pollinators are important in the desert plant Nerine laticoma. Abstract The evolutionary limits to generalization in plant pollination systems are often determined by trade‐offs in which adaptations to one set of flower visitors reduces the effectiveness of another set of visitors.

Dragon fruit (pitaya; Hylocereus undatus) is a promising, new high‐value crop in New Zealand. The large nocturnal flowers open for one night and close early in the morning the following day over a 3‐ to 6‐month long flowering period. In dragon fruit's native range, hawkmoths and bats are key nocturnal pollinators, and honey bees visit flowers during ...

Sex‐Specific Response to Predator Auditory Cues in Asian Corn Borer (Ostrinia furnacalis)
Females downregulate more DEGs; males upregulate under predation risk. Males boost ecdysteroid; females reduce fecundity under bat ultrasound. Female O. furnacalis reacted more strongly to auditory cues of bats than males. ABSTRACT Predation risk has profound effects on prey from phenotype to gene expression.

Strategic mowing of roadside milkweeds increases monarch butterfly oviposition
The eastern North American migratory population of monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) has declined precipitously due, in part, to the widespread decline of its obligate host plant, milkweed (Asclepias spp.). Linear right-of-ways (e.g.

Food Subsidy Effects on Host Foraging Behavior Shape Host–Macroparasite Infection Dynamics
Wildlife behavioral responses to different distributions of food subsidies could shape encounter and infection intensity of environmentally transmitted parasites. Using a mathematical model, we show that the way in which food subsidy changes transmission rate and variation in parasite burdens (e.g., through changes in time spent foraging and variation ...

Mating across species occurs rarely in nature, which contends prevalent idea of biological species concept. Throughout species range, mating pattern varies and reproductive barriers are also not fixed among different species. In this study, two instances
